Penn Fierce IV 8000 — Built for Serious Saltwater Fishing

The Penn Fierce IV 8000 is a full-metal spinning reel engineered to handle demanding saltwater applications with the reliability and strength anglers expect from Penn.

Full Metal Construction for Maximum Durability

The Fierce IV 8000 features a complete metal body and sideplate that provide the structural integrity needed for tough saltwater conditions. Combined with HT-100 carbon fiber drag washers delivering up to 13.6 kg of stopping power, this reel won't back down when you hook into strong-running fish. The aluminum Superline spool is optimized for braid and offers generous line capacity—310 m of 0.46 mm mono or 475 yards of 50 lb braid.

Smooth, Reliable Performance

Five bearings, including four sealed stainless steel ball bearings and an Instant Anti-Reverse bearing, ensure corrosion resistance and dependable hooksets. The Techno-Balanced rotor eliminates wobble for smooth retrieves even under load, while the 5.3:1 gear ratio retrieves 112 cm of line per turn—ideal for working lures and fighting fish efficiently in inshore, nearshore, and surf applications.
